UTFO – Burning Bed Lyrics

Hip Hop/Rap

(One-Adam-12)
(One-Adam-12 a man has been burnt to death)

(Now that's a fire!)

(Now that's, that's a fire!)

(Now that's a fire!)

(Now that's, that's a fire!)

Treat your woman right
Or get that burning bed at night
You've got to treat her right
Treat her right
Treat her right

(Now that's a fire!)

Treat your woman right
Or get that burning bed at night
You've got to treat her right
Treat her right
Treat her right

(Willie!)

The women of today ain't with it
If you ain't gonna be loyal, forget it
I know the deal, so I admit it
Because I knew a brother that did it

He used to be a nice-looking dude, the ladies' choice
He would charm them all with the sound of his voice
He's not a sucker, a bum, the boy ain't soft
He likes to be clean and dress his ass off

He was light-skinned with curly hair
He would make his girl think he was so sincere
Always said "I'm cool," called himself an expert
Comin' home every night with lipstick on his shirt

She took it like a champ and let him do it
Until one day he really blew it
Rappin' to girls one day by the dozen
And one of those girls was his girlfriend's cousin

He was so blind cause he was on a roll
Came home drunk one night singin' James Brown soul
"Get up-a!" bangin on the door he said
"Get up-a!" and banged once more

So she opened the door with a smile on her face
Brang him to the bed, untied his shoelace
Took off all his clothes and then she said
"Good night, sucker" and burned the bed

So

Treat your woman right
Or get that burning bed at night (Now that's a fire!)
You've got to treat her right
Treat her right
Treat her right

(Now that's a fire!)

Treat your woman right
Or get that burning bed at night
You've got to treat her right
Treat her right
Treat her right

(Now that's, that's a fire!)

Burn 'em up

She only burn you can see was ugly, Willie
Now you look like Richard Fire
I mean Richard Pryor, Willie
Willie, jump in the pool

(Now that's a fire!)
(Now that's, that's a fire!)
(Now that's a fire!)
(Now that's, that's a fire!)

So never in life think that you're too great
Cause it's a very thin line between love and hate
You see, he wasn't just burned, the boy was torched
Burned from head to toe and then so-and-so was scorched

He's with the same girl, now he's sincerer
She ain't worried about a thing cause he ain't goin' nowhere
When I see him now I say "yo, bro"
Cause he's the darkest brother that I now know

No more Casanova, that life is over
He used to drink heavy, now he stays sober
She burned him bad, now he stays alert
But I know when they make love, brother, it hurts

You wouldn't think the girl would hurt a fly
But she proved that to be a goddamn lie
From what I recall, he gives her much respect
Point blank, word, she got him in check

So

Treat your woman right
Or get that burning bed at night
You've got to treat her right
Treat her right
Treat her right

Treat your woman right
Or get that burning bed at night
You've got to treat her right
Treat her right
Treat her right

See, you can hit 'em, beat 'em, call 'em a creep
But remember, homeboy, you've got to sleep
So chill, be nice or pay the price
Of bein' burned, walk easy like Doctor Ice

(Now that's a fire!)
(Now that's, that's a fire!)

Get out the house, Willie!

(Now that's a fire!)

(Fire)
Willie's on
(Fire)
Get out the house, Willie
(Fire)
Damn, you shoulda seened it
(Fire)
She burned him bad
Damn, Willie
(Fire)
That my man Willie
(Fire)
And his woman name is Wilhelmina
(Fire)
She burned him up
She burned him up
(Fire)
Don't get the burning bed, Willie
(Fire)
It's too late now
You're blacker than black
(Fire)
You used to be light-skinned, ain't no turnin' back
(Fire)
You look like somethin' left-over from a cook-out, Willie
Yo
I told you leave that bitch alone
I told ya, Willie
I told ya
(Aight, that's cool)
